True Monarch Gu Yue had a strange look on her face as she took out a large pile of items from somewhere: a large and beautiful hawksbill turtle shell, four or five black stones that emitted a cold light, an eight trigram plate, a purple gold three-legged dragon tiger cauldron, six or seven incense sticks, a piece of something that looked like broken tree bark, a stack of yellow talismans, a talisman brush and cinnabar, and so on.
Even with True Lord Tian Lan's experience, he was a little shocked. Seeing True Lord Gu Yue leisurely arranging the items around him, he couldn't help but ask, "I say, it's just a simple divination, do you really need to bring so many items?"
True Lord Gu Yue said indifferently, "That's why I look down on outsiders like you. You don't know anything and talk a lot of nonsense. Divination, divination, divination is about fate, calculating the secrets of the heavens, how many people can do it since ancient times? Do you think that the streets below the immortal city are filled with people who draw lots to tell fortunes and cheat people of money? "
True Lord Tian Lan frowned and his expression became more serious. He sized up True Lord Gu Yue and nodded, "Eh, you're right, now that you mention it, you're indeed much more imposing than those fortune-tellers on the streets."
"Nonsense, these are all genuine abilities. And these items, they're all treasures! " True Lord Gu Yue pointed at the many artifacts in front of him and said proudly, "Do you see that turtle shell, it's a South Sea Hawksbill Turtle; those five black stones, don't think that they're eye-catching, they're actually outer space black meteorites; and this, tree bark? Wrong, this is a Thousand Year Agarwood; and … "
He muttered to himself for a while. Sure enough, every single item laid out on the ground was a rare treasure or peerless spiritual material. Even though some of them looked ordinary, they were actually priceless treasures.
After True Lord Tian Lan finished listening, he looked at True Lord Gu Yue and smiled, "You old thing, you actually hid so many good things all these years, I couldn't tell."
"I can't compare to you guys." Perfected Gu Yue smiled and then looked at Perfected Lord Tian Lan meaningfully. "I only have a little toy in my hand for fun. If you really want to do something big, you won't be interested in it and won't need it. You need to think of another way."
After pondering for a moment, Perfected Lord Tianlan leaned forward slightly and asked in a low voice, "What is it?"
Gu Yue True Monarch said indifferently: "Whoever manages money is the richest."
Perfected Lord Tian Lan didn't seem to be surprised by Perfected Lord Gu Yue's words, but his eyes obviously lit up. He looked at the Master of Starry Hall without blinking and said, "It's a big fat sheep over there, but there's too much money and goods. The jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards that they're raising are also astonishing. I'm afraid it won't be easy to get them?"
Gu Yue True Monarch sneered and said: "Don't pretend, don't pretend. Sheep are the only things that can be reared in a sheep pen. Aren't the real wolves and tigers on Sky Dragon Mountain under Black Shadow? "
Perfected Lord Tian Lan stared at him for a long time and suddenly clapped his hands and sighed: "I've misjudged, I've misjudged. I didn't expect the most cunning person on this mountain to be you. To think that I've been keeping an eye on those people for so many years. Now that I think about it, I'm really shocked and ashamed. "
Perfected Lord Gu Yue shook his head: "You don't have to belittle yourself or think too highly of me. I'm old and I don't have much time left. The people in Starry Hall are all mediocre. Even if I want to do something, I won't be able to do much, not to mention fight against those ferocious tigers and wolves of yours. "
Perfected Lord Tian Lan said: "You've always played safe in the past. Why did you suddenly stand out this time?"
"Because the Blood Moon is near." Perfected Lord Gu Yue said without hesitation: "Great changes are coming and it's hard to predict whether it'll be a blessing or a curse. It's fine if everyone is muddling along, but you're the only one with a murderous aura. You've been having so much fun by yourself all these years. I'm afraid you're ready now?"
Perfected Lord Tian Lan hesitated for a moment and nodded: "It's about time."
Perfected Lord Gu Yue pointed at him and seemed to be speechless. He put down his hand helplessly and said: "That's why I say, if I have to choose, I'm not like those idiots below. I've secretly watched you for so many years and seen your methods. If I don't stand on your side, wouldn't I be an idiot?"
Perfected Lord Tian Lan smiled: "You can play safe. As long as you don't stand out, you know I won't make things difficult for you."
"Bullsh * t!" Perfected Lord Gu Yue scolded: "You want me to pretend that I don't see these mountains of wealth? Cultivation doesn't need money, enjoyment doesn't need money, being a virgin every day, using pills and cauldrons to live forever, and raising such a bunch of useless people doesn't need money? "
Perfected Lord Tian Lan was stunned for a moment and nodded: "You're right." Then, his expression turned serious and he said solemnly: "Great things are actually difficult and dangerous. How can it be so easy to be on the line between life and death? But if you help me, it'll be like giving me charcoal in snowy weather and adding wings to a tiger. I'm willing to make a deal with you. After the matter is done, we'll split the profits equally. I won't go back on my words. "
Perfected Lord Gu Yue looked at him and after a moment of silence said: "No."
Perfected Lord Tian Lan's expression changed slightly but his tone was still very polite: "Then please tell me Brother Gu Yue."
Perfected Lord Gu Yue said: "I'll take 20% and you take 80%."
"Hmm?" Perfected Lord Tian Lan's face revealed a surprised expression as he didn't expect Perfected Lord Gu Yue to propose such a disadvantageous condition. "Why is that?"
True Monarch Gu Yue smiled bitterly, but said calmly: "Because you are too strong, your killing nature is too strong, and your subordinates are vicious and bloodthirsty. If the plan succeeds, it will definitely be your side that puts in more effort. At that time, I will get too many things, and that will be the path to disaster."
"20%, I only want 20%." Perfected Lord Gu Yue stretched out two fingers and said: "Young Master Qian, be content with what you have. At that time, you'll probably care about my past relationship and won't be too embarrassed to do anything to me. "
Perfected Lord Tian Lan stared at Gu Yue for a long time and nodded slowly. He sighed and said: "In my entire life, other than my teacher Ancestor Tian Hong, I've never respected anyone. It is only today that Brother Gu Yue has made me feel respect. I don't respect your Dao arts and divine arts, I don't respect your forces, I only respect your wisdom and understanding of the world. "
Perfected Lord Gu Yue waved his hand and said that he didn't dare to accept it. He raised his head and looked up at the dome of the hall.
The vast sky was filled with stars, deep and unpredictable. Darkness filled the air but he still couldn't see the legendary blood moon.
…
"Hmm, let me ask you something." Perfected Lord Gu Yue said.
"Speak."
Perfected Lord Gu Yue skillfully burned the incense for divination while wiping the Hawksbill Star Stone with a serious expression. At the same time, he casually asked Perfected Lord Tian Lan: "I remember that there are a total of four divine tree treasures passed down in the demonic cult. They are 'one branch, two leaves and one seed'. Why do you only want me to divine the divine leaf and the divine seed? Don't you want to divine the branch too? "
Perfected Lord Tian Lan said indifferently: "No need, I've already found the branch."
